After eating at their North Park location and having them cater an event, I wish I could give them more stars. In both instances, the food was amazing, the portions were generous, and when there was a small mix up about the catering order they had someone personally come back out and deliver a bonus item, plus a couple gift cards. The business is run by genuinely kind people and their catering service is truly outstanding. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a caterer, or to anyone who is just hungry and wants to support a family business.

I got the chicken - kalbi combo plate. The food was pretty good, but nothing special. Service was way too slow - took about 30 mins to get my order. Others who ordered after me got their food before I did; I think there was some mess up in the kitchen. The person taking the orders seemed pretty apologetic about it though. Also, it's north park - so there's no way to find parking easily. Considering all of this, I'd just go to L&L for my next Hawaiian bowl

Called in a to-go order and it was ready pretty quick. Staff super friendly! The huli huli chix is incredible and the char siu out of this world. The show stopper was the Mac salad! So tangy! Great chill spot and close to one of my favorite breweries down on Ohio.Parking: Wow it stinks to find parking in NPark.

Food was delicious, the portion sizes were a little small but good enough. The person taking our order was a little rude and the sitting is all outdoors with a lot of construction going on. It’d be a 5/5 for take

I am very impressed by this totally hole in the wall unassuming restaurant!Their huli-huli chicken is so damn good, the spam musubi is also fire. Also tried the kahlua pork, which was just ok in comparison with the other dishes. Pineapple pico and salsas were great also.We’re definitely glad we stumbled upon it. I’ll try the poke next time!There’s no indoor seating, but there’s plenty of outdoor seating. Service is register only. There’s almost no people eating here so it’s a nice quiet place to lunch. A lot of people order their food to go.

Other than the long hair in my kalua……Food was good. I wish the Mac salad had more flavor.
